Rayne was restless as he paced through his room in his long strides. He is only putting on a loose pair of pants with his chest bare. A lot of cats were killed at the forest entrance just a few days ago, which made the people fearful and none of them could go into the woods to find even food to eat. The woodcutters are complaining because they couldn't go into the woods to find timber.Even the scholars have brought up many petitions. Waters from the stream and springs are now becoming tasteless. Most of them for him to be dethroned even when he was still in reign for only three years.He didn't believe in prophecy. He never believed in it but Rayne knew he needed to hear whatever message the moon goddess wanted to pass across.He had sent for Drake to be brought in. The man will soon be here. Just three seconds later, the guard announced the arrival of Drake into the palace.“Let him in," Rayne said aloud impatiently. His jaw clenched as he sat on the bed.“You sent for me, my king.
Perhaps the time is now after all. Rayne was sure Selene's parents don't have any distant cousins and he didn't even find out much information about her dead father either.Back then, when he took her in. He made sure to find out more information about her.“Tell me when the boy usually comes and when he has been coming," Rayne asked and Harold quickly tried to recollect the message he got from the men.He cleared his throat as they walked forward while a few maidens ogled at Rayne. They were smitten by Rayne's handsomeness.“Not until the last three months, Alpha. The boy usually came two times a month and no one knew the particular day. He seems to pick the day randomly." Harold answered.“That is what makes it suspicious. I need to visit them myself." Rayne said with a slight smile but Harold was against it.“What would you tell her mother? It will raise suspicion." Harold said aloud while making sure no passersby heard them.Rayne agreed with Harold but he knew if he was right, th
Back in Starlight Fall Village,Selene poured the wine inside the cup and did the same for the second cup. She got this house after earning a decent share of her acting skills through the help of Logan. When she got to know Azalea was interested in Logan, Selene already tried her best to match them up but Logan made it clear to her that he didn't want Azalea.Now they are here, drinking While Azalea already made his way towards Logan's house.“How was today?" Logan asked as he took a sip from the mug cup. He hated the idea of seeing Selene act in an adult play in the theater house but he knew he couldn't stop her because he chose it.“It was fine. I got my pay again," Selene replied with a faint smile on her lips. She faced the east side as she took the cup closer to her lips to take the alcohol.“You are gaining more popularity as time goes on," Logan said with a playful smile. He watched the way Selene placed the cup back before giving him her reply.“Azalea is going to your house.
“I wonder why she told you everything. Margaret even trusts you more than. I hope she didn't spill much information," Logan asked. He raked his hand through his hair roughly before sitting back on the sofa in the room.Selene picked some of the meats she kept in the small container and placed them inside a bowl. She began to cut them into small pieces. The meat was smoked, which prevented it from decaying early.”She didn't tell me much. I would like to come with the men that night. I know the rogue werewolf might attack but I wish to be there.".”You know I won't allow that, Selene." Selene put the meat inside the pot to boil it after adding some seasoning. She crossed her arms over her chest as her gaze became fixated on Logan across the room.“You should also know I don't like waiting behind like a coward. Who knows? You might find me useful." Selene said with her brows raised and Logan clenched his jaw.Selene has always been useful to them but he didn't want her this way. He wa
Andrew and Dennis discuss in a whisper as they stay perched on the tree. Watching Selene's mother's house from afar. They were busy discussing their abilities and didn't know when the conversation shifted to Selene and the Alpha.“You think Selene is the Alpha mate? I don't believe that." Andrew said, shaking his head in disagreement.“I think she is. Why else would the Alpha send the Luna away? For the past seven months, we have been looking for his breeder," Dennis replied intelligently and Andrew couldn't find fault in it.He realized Dennis might be right after all. But they must find Selene; only then can they go back to the castle because they have been living in the inn since.“Hey, see that." Andrew said, tapping on Dennis's shoulder, who quickly tilted his head towards the house.A small boy with a basket riding a bicycle knocked on the door and it was pulled ajar from the inside.“That is the boy," Dennis realized and quickly mindlinked with Harold. This is the rare connecti
Rayne already played with a few men and at that point, they had to switch to liquor drinking. The best man to hold his liquor well will go home with the money.“If you lose, then consider giving me your wrist, young man," the man in front of Rayne said, his morning breath smelled awful.He hadn't even brushed his teeth before coming here, which was why the foul smell came out of his breath.Rayne agreed with the man and they began to drink. Most of them didn't see his face because he made sure the gat on his head was covering half of his upper face.After drinking ten bottles, Rayne froze when he noticed something changed in the air. It wasn't the weather; it was that sweet rose smell of a woman.Though she was using a lining to cover half of her face, Rayne's eyes didn't miss the way her wavy brown hair spilled out of her head like a waterfall.She walked gracefully, passing by his side, and went into another room. He couldn't believe it.Rayne felt the urge to claim her right there
Rayne didn't settle inside the room given to her by the owner of the inn, instead, he decided to check on Selene at her place.It was already night at Starlight Falls. The market woman already took care of their goods and got back to their various homes. The snow freckles fell from the sky, making the ground sticky.Rayne walked stealthily like a stray cat but he knew his destination. He walked towards Selene's house and saw a figure in a dark cloak beside her house.The figure stayed at the window which piqued Rayne's curiosity. He wanted to know if this figure was going to pose a threat or not.However, on getting a little bit closer, watching the man from afar, Rayne realized he was just standing there.The figure was probably looking for something or guarding the house but he was curious. He suddenly realized he hasn't bothered to find out if Selene had someone in her life. Although, he was sure she was not marked yet by any wolf that doesn't mean men are not interested in her. S
Rayne didn't bother to eavesdrop on their conversation, he could hear them. He was even more enraged because Selene is also acting in a theater house. His mate has not only gotten Stronger but she was ambitious too. He felt some prick at his heart but he wasn't the type to get down without a fight. Even if he has to become a monster, he needs to bring her alongside him to Eldoria and make things right.”I'm so happy for you Eve. You have always had a crush on sir Marcus, no one knows you will eventually be his fated mate. But how did it happen?" Azalea was the one who spoke. She was happy for her friend and Selene was even more happier.“I just listened to Selene words and found Sir Marcus. I was drunk before that night and that was how he got to know I was his fated mate." Eve replied and paused, clearing her throat. Logan decided to excuse them and walk in first but his eyes gazed lovingly at Selene as he get inside, and shut the door but Rayne predator eyes already saw the expres
